IMHO (too ), I just don't know that unless they do something radical, that the weight gain from the new engine would be significant enough to offset the new performance. For example: the engine probably isn't going to weigh too much more, because I've read they're finally going to a poly intake manifold. I'm sure they're going to pick up weight with a 6 or 8-speed tranny (or whatever they do) and probably some more with bigger driveshafts, rear end, and axles. I'm sure they'll bring bigger brakes into the picture too. If they choose to be more aggressive this time with their chassis tuning, SS, or whatever top Camaro model there is, better watch out. That pony from across Detroit isn't getting any slower either!
